Was wanting to know what to expect for a monthly return for having X number of images hosted on a stockimage sight. This information may be helpful for some deciding if they want to do this or not.

Everyone wants to know things like this upfront. Your income depends on the quality of your images. 200 spectacular images can earn you $3000 or more a month while 1000 mediocre images could only earn you $400 a month. You have to improve quality all the time. You have to upload all the time. Only then you will be successful. Contact me for more info! Good luck!

wow thank you for the great tutorial….also i wanna start to do this and wanted to know is it better to upload your images on one site or on a few different sites? also can you upload the same image on 2 or even 3 different sites?

@spartin215 – Yes you can upload the same image to other non-exclusive agencies. Some very successful photographers though, choose to be exclusive with only one agency. They only have to upload their images once and have more time shooting. On the other hand if you upload the same image to many agencies you can sell that image more often and make more money that way. It’s your choice.
